So far in the series, spinner Sunil Narine and the very unpredictable Marlon Samuels have come to the rescue of the home side.


Likewise, the Proteas have relied upon the services of Hashim Amla and Imran Tahir right through the tri-series.


Ranked world no 3, AB de Villiers' men go in as clear favorites against the Windies and anything but a win is bound to be termed as an upset.


Hosts' skipper Jason Holder is battling a hamstring injury, complicating matters for the team.


If he fails to make it to the playing eleven, wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Ramdin will lead the side.
